About a year ago we decided that we had entirely too much meat in our diet and began eating meatless meals at least twice a week. Since that time we've added a third meatless meal most weeks. Initially I had difficulty looking past pasta for my meatless meals but we've found a world of delicious meatless dishes. We now enjoy pasta, quiche, bean burritos, black bean burgers, tofu, and many other meatless dishes.
My husband recently bought me a subscription to Vegetarian Times and I've found many of our recent dinners in this magazine. I saw a great vegetarian frittata but unfortunately for me I don't have a skillet that is oven safe so I had to make it in a pie pan. Then my husband decided he wanted a crust on this dish so it turned out as more of a quiche then a frittata but it was still delicious. The quiche is fluffy and light with great flavor from the vegetables and herbs. The real star of this dish is the red pepper puree. It brightens the dish in both color and flavor.
This week #SundaySupper is all about budget recipes and I find that cooking vegetarian several times a week is definitely a way to save money in my budget. The cost of this quiche is under $10 and easily feeds 4.
